Soldiers capture high value target south of Baghdad
2008-01-17
Multi-National Division Center Soldiers, in support of Operation Phantom Phoenix, captured 15 suspected extremists, including a high-value target individual, during an air assault raid 25 miles south of Baghdad Jan. 14.

The HVT suspect is believed to be involved in planning attacks against Iraqi Security Forces and Coalition Forces and for contributing to sectarian violence. Soldiers from Company C, 2nd Battalion, 502nd Infantry Regiment, 101st Airborne Division (Air Assault), from Fort Campbell, Ky., currently attached to the 4th Brigade Combat Team, 3rd Infantry Division, captured the suspects based on a tip from a local citizen.
